There’s growing interest in soursop leaves for their potential anti-cancer properties due to a compound called acetogenins, which may:
Inhibit cancer cell growth in lab studies
Block energy supply to tumor cells
Important: These effects have been observed mainly in preliminary or lab studies, and more research is needed. Soursop tea is not a cure or replacement for medical treatment.
Cautions & Side Effects
While soursop leaf infusion is generally safe when consumed moderately, keep in mind:
Long-term or excessive intake may be harmful to nerve cells (linked to atypical Parkinson-like symptoms in very high doses)
Avoid if pregnant or breastfeeding
May interact with blood pressure, diabetes, or sedative medications
Always consult your doctor if you’re managing a serious health condition
